I have a gift and with that gift I am able to create art. I have
always had a passion for art. I love to freely express myself
through my pieces. My artworks range from simple designs to more
detailed and in-depth pieces. I release my thoughts and feelings
through my artwork. I am attempting to find a fun way to deal with
thoughts in my head and my wide array of moods. I explore and
challenge the ramblings of my mind by channeling it into my work.

Please tell us about your first experience creating.

I don't remember my first experience of creating art, but I do
remember what got me into art. When I was a young child, my uncle had
drawn a picture of my dad sleeping on the toilet. Not only was it
funny but it was also drawn very well.

What music do you like to have playing while creating art?

I like playing Rock or R&B while creating art. Depending on what
mood I'm in at the time is what I listen to.

What are you trying to convey to viewers through your art?

I try to convey my inner struggle with my different moods, thoughts,
and feelings in hopes that the viewers can begin to understand.

Tell us about your creative process, from the beginning of a
typical piece to its completion:

My process of creating a piece would be that I do not set out to
produce art about one subject or another. I never make a firm plan on
what I am going to create. I express my work with randomness. I do
not follow rules. I just do what looks and feels right at the time.
When it all comes together and I can sit back to look at what I have
created and can smile, that is when I know that the piece is
finished.

What things inspire you to create art?

One of the things that inspire me to create art are the random
thoughts that flow through my head. The other would be my love of art
and the ability to create art.

Have you sold any of your artworks?

Yes I had sold one of my pieces to a friend who bought my piece not
only because she wanted to support me but because she really liked
it. I just told her I had some of my art online for sell and gave her
the link to it. The next thing I knew she told me she had bought one
of my pieces for herself.

How do you promote your art on the internet?

I promote my artwork on the internet using Facebook and Google Plus
by posting my finished pieces.

Tell us about influences.

My random thoughts and the ability to create with freedom of
expressions would be the main influence while my love for art would
be the other.

Tell us something interesting in your life.

Something that is currently interesting in my life is that I
recently moved to Eureka Springs, Arkansas with my partner and we
love it. Before that my partner and I lived in Warren, Arkansas and
before that we lived in St. Louis, Missouri. Before that I had lived
and was born in Niagara Falls, New York. I never dreamed I would be
where I am today.

Do you have an embarrassing moment in your life?

One of the most embarrassing moments in my life was when I thought I
could read a map. I was trying to read a map during a roadtrip to New
York from Arkansas with my partner and my job was to tell my partner
when the exit was coming up and the next thing I knew we had saw the
sign that read welcome to Indiana. So not only had we entered a new
state and missed our exit, but my partner had also taken the map from
my hands and said "This isn't going to be a stressful trip."
I was so embarrassed of the fact that I thought I could not read a
map.

If you could live your life over again, would there be
anything you would do differently?

I just try to make most of what life has become. For the most part I
am happy with my life as it is today.

What plans do you have for the future of your art?

I plan to have my artwork to be first noticed and then to be known
by people and the art world.

Do you have any good advice for emerging artists?

My advice for any emerging artist is if it's something you have a
passion for never let it go.
